The partition size (s) and tolerance (t) are listed at the head of each column. The first instance of this gene set is detected at s = 21, t = 4. As s and t are stepped, the number of erbb2/17q12 genes increases from size to a maximum of 15, at s = 29, t = 6. From that point the number of genes decreases.
